constructor overloading in java code example

Example 1: Overload the default constructor to take a parameter for each attribute and set it

class StudentData
{
   private int stuID;
   private String stuName;
   private int stuAge;
   StudentData()
   {
       //Default constructor
       stuID = 100;
       stuName = "New Student";
       stuAge = 18;
   }
   StudentData(int num1, String str, int num2)
   {
       //Parameterized constructor
       stuID = num1;
       stuName = str;
       stuAge = num2;
   }
   //Getter and setter methods
   public int getStuID() {
       return stuID;
   }
   public void setStuID(int stuID) {
       this.stuID = stuID;
   }
   public String getStuName() {
       return stuName;
   }
   public void setStuName(String stuName) {
       this.stuName = stuName;
   }
   public int getStuAge() {
       return stuAge;
   }
   public void setStuAge(int stuAge) {
       this.stuAge = stuAge;
   }

   public static void main(String args[])
   {
       //This object creation would call the default constructor
       StudentData myobj = new StudentData();
       System.out.println("Student Name is: "+myobj.getStuName());
       System.out.println("Student Age is: "+myobj.getStuAge());
       System.out.println("Student ID is: "+myobj.getStuID());

       /*This object creation would call the parameterized
        * constructor StudentData(int, String, int)*/
       StudentData myobj2 = new StudentData(555, "Chaitanya", 25);
       System.out.println("Student Name is: "+myobj2.getStuName());
       System.out.println("Student Age is: "+myobj2.getStuAge());
       System.out.println("Student ID is: "+myobj2.getStuID()); 
  }
}

Example 2: default constructor java

Default constructor is a constructor created by compiler; if user does not 
create a constructor in a class.
If user defines a constructor in a class then java compiler will not create 
default constructor.

Example 3: Can we overload the constructors

Yes, the constructors can be overloaded by changing the number of 
arguments accepted by the constructor or by changing the data type of 
the parameters

Example 4: overloading constructors

Yes, the constructors can be overloaded by
changing the number of 
arguments accepted by the constructor
or by changing the data type of 
the parameters
